Really dope video from Ryan Lewis. I was thinking of a way to explain what goes on but a comment on the YouTube page does it quite well.
I’m thinking the intention was, these companies allow people to keep themselves isolated. To make a routine of going alone to get coffee or fast food instead of a family dinner. To communicate through the Internet instead of finding people you know in real life. I mean, networks of channels and profiles let you make comments and put out videos, but in a way none of it is real – it’s all bits and pieces that someone real put out in the past, that stick around like starlight when the star’s gone.
Check out the page for credits on the video and music. I have a feeling (if they watch it) a certain someone is gonna get at me about the 3 minute mark.
